PRECAUTIONS CAUTION: DO NOT use harsh solvents such as ben- zine or alcohol to clean the transceiver, because they can damage the transceiver's surfaces. DO NOT push the PTT unless you actually intend to trans- mit. DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electri- cal blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere. DO NOT use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas with temperatures below -20°C (-4˚F) or above +60°C (+140˚F). BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operating it continuously for long periods of time. BE CAREFUL! The transceiver meets IPX7* require- ments for waterproof protection. However, once the transceiver has been dropped, waterproof protection cannot be guaranteed because of possible damage to the transceiver's case or waterproof seal. * Only when the BP-271 or BP-272 (option), flexible antenna, [MIC/SP] cap, [DATA/DC IN] cap and [micro SD] slot cap are attached. Place the unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children. The BP-273 meets IPX4 requirements for splash resistance. When it is connected, the transceiver corresponds to IPX4. Even when the transceiver power is OFF, a slight current still flows in the circuits. Remove the battery pack or batteries from the transceiver when not using it for a long time. Otherwise, the installed battery pack or batteries will become exhausted, and will need to be recharged or replaced. 13
